Seriously though, he's out of form and hasn't played much lately (which probably means he won't be much of a january signing) but he's a class player. Comfortably better than any centreforward in the league who isn't playing for United or City.

Manny Calavera! Wonderful game!

Not sure he's going to set the PL on fire straight away if he's grasping for form and games in la Liga.
Not all that keen on him anymore, we need even better.
If we just signed the one brilliant striker, that'd be enough for me in January.

Brilliant, isn't it? My heart sank when Disney aquired Lucasarts. Was hoping we might see Grim Fandango on Steam soon.

That style of game is basically dead now.

Klaus

Been trending a bit on the indie scene lately, though. Machinarium, Gemini Rue and Resonance were awesome.

Captain

You would expect a renaissance given that they are perfectly playable on tablets and phones but instead they try to cram GTA4 on there with shitty touch screen controls. Brilliant.

That's why I play my ds quite a bit even now; games lean more towards puzzle solution but stuff like phoenix wright, ghost trick and professor layton are excellent.

Llorente would be a proven upgrade on giroud, would prefer him then huntelaar then ba.

Amen.

I loved Ghost Trick too. I wonder how they did the animations in that game, by the way. Never seen anything like it in such a low-res style. Must be some form of motion capture. Rotoscoping perhaps?

What’s interesting is we made them in 3D first. Usually, people would use motion capture, but we didn’t want them to be super realistic so we didn’t go through the whole motion capture process. We made each of the 3D models by hand and hand animated to them. This gave them an element of quirkiness, weirdness, that bit of individual style. Once we had them in 3D we rendered them into the 2D sprites you’ve seen.

Oh, and Llorente, Ba, something, something... 😆

Bilbao president Josu Urrutia on Llorente

This player makes our team more competitive and his future will be decided by the club,"
"At the moment we need to maintain the quality level within our squad, not reduce it.
"Llorente will stay with us until the end of the season."

Maybe yes, maybe no, if he does leave I'm pretty sure it won't be for here.
